Injury-induced anergy is one of the key factors contributing to trauma victims' high susceptibility to sepsis. This group of patients is mostly of young age and it is therefore essential to be able to predict as accurately as possible the development of septic complications, so appropriate treatment could be provided. The aim of this study was to assess kinetics of interleukin (IL)-6 and -10, phospholipase A2-II and C-reactive protein (CRP) in severely traumatized patients and explore the possibilities for early detection of potentially septic patients.
